Chemical Structure

Zinc(II) Acetylacetonate CAS 14024-63-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Zinc(II) Acetylacetonate.

CATO supplies Zinc(II) Acetylacetonate (CAS 14024-63-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H14O4Zn, MW 263.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C10H14O4Zn, Zinc(II) Acetylacetonate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 263.62 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures Zinc(II) Acetylacetonate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
